Winter Car Care and Maintenance

Winter Car Care and Maintenance

Don’t be left out in the cold! Winter break-downs could
leave you stranded on cold, snowy, slippery roads. Before the snow begins to
fly, it is a good idea to make sure your car is in good safe working condition.
You or your auto repair shop or local mechanic should give your car a thorough
inspection and perform any needed vehicle maintenance to head off potential car
trouble:

Check the battery

Check the brakes

Check fluids: antifreeze, windshield washer fluid, and oil

Check the heating and exhaust

Check tires for tread-wear and proper inflation

For added safety, keep emergency supplies on board in winter
months.

winter long.
